Description

Corporate Prelude – The Story Behind the Print

Philip E. West’s Corporate Prelude depicts Vulcan XM607 during the intensive preparation for Operation Corporate in 1982.

The Falklands conflict brought the Vulcan into combat for the first time in its RAF career. Aircraft and crews from Nos. 44, 50 and 101 Squadrons were involved in preparations for the long-range Black Buck missions.

XM607, flown by Martin Withers, subsequently undertook the first Black Buck mission from Ascension Island. The original product record describes the 7,500-mile flight lasting 15 hours 45 minutes and supported by repeated Victor tanker refuelling.

All editions are signed and numbered by Philip E. West. Artist Studio Collection and Artist Remarque Edition prints additionally carry the signature of Squadron Leader Martin Withers DFC.
